Hyundai car rental in Paris

Our fleet on this page has 3 cars — the Hyundai Kona, Hyundai Kona Electric and Hyundai Tucson — from €89 per day, weekly from €534 and monthly from €1,869. We deliver the car to the address you give us in Paris, and the hand-over time is agreed with a manager when you book.

Which Hyundai models can you rent in Paris

Rent-Trip keeps three Hyundais available for Hyundai car rental in Paris: the Kona, the Kona Electric and the Tucson. All three seat five people, all three shift automatically, and all three are front-wheel drive. The range runs from €89 to €109 per day.

Three Hyundai models in the Rent-Trip fleet

Rent-Trip has three Hyundais in Paris — Kona, Kona Electric and Tucson — from €89 to €109 per day. The Kona is a crossover with a 1.6 L hybrid engine and 141 hp; the Kona Electric is a crossover too, but runs on a 65 kWh battery with 218 hp; the Tucson is the SUV & 4x4 option, a 1.6 L hybrid with 150 hp. Two of the three are hybrid, one is fully electric, and every one of them is automatic — which matters in a city where the manual gearbox is still the default on rental lots. Class decides more than price: a crossover slips through the narrow streets of Le Marais more easily, while the SUV holds its line better on a long run out of town.

Specs and prices by model

Kona Hybrid or Kona Electric for a week

Both Konas cost €89 per day, and a week of either starts at €534. The choice comes down to where you can charge, not to the price. Charge the electric overnight rather than hunting for a rapid charger in the middle of the day.

Hyundai car rental in Paris for the low-emission zone

Every Hyundai on this page is either a hybrid or a full electric, which matters because central Paris now has an emissions perimeter that turns away older diesel and petrol cars.

What the ZFE de la Métropole du Grand Paris bans

Inside the A86 motorway ring — the A86 itself is excluded — vehicles with Crit'Air 5, 4, 3 and «Non classé» stickers are banned from the ZFE de la Métropole du Grand Paris. The perimeter takes in the boulevard périphérique and both the Bois de Boulogne and the Bois de Vincennes. The restriction is enforced by the Crit'Air sticker on the windscreen, and the sticker class follows the vehicle, not the driver. Because the périphérique sits inside the zone, even a transit lap around the city needs a valid sticker.

Our Kona Electric runs on a 65 kWh battery with 218 hp; the Kona and Tucson hybrids pair a 1.6 L engine with 141 hp and 150 hp respectively.

Matching the Hyundai to your trip

Hyundai car rental in Paris prices and longer bookings

Rates for Hyundai hire run from €89 to €109 per day, depending on the model. Longer bookings follow two simple multipliers: a week is charged as the daily rate times six, a month as the daily rate times twenty-one.

Daily rates across the three Hyundais

Hyundai hire starts at €89 per day and reaches €109 for the Tucson. The Kona and the Kona Electric sit at the bottom of that range, and the Tucson sits at the top as the only SUV & 4x4 in the group. That step up buys a taller body and a higher driving position, which matters on a run out to Giverny or down to the Loire Valley châteaux. In the city itself the gap rarely shows: all three cars are 5-seaters with automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, so the daily difference is about comfort and luggage, not about getting through traffic.

Weekly and monthly Hyundai rates

A week of Hyundai costs from €534, and a month from €1,869 — both figures calculated from the daily rate of the model you choose, times six and times twenty-one respectively. The multipliers do not change with the class, so a week of Tucson is worked out the same way as a week of Kona Electric.

• Daily rate: from €89 for the Kona and Kona Electric, €109 for the Tucson.
• Weekly rate: the daily rate of your model multiplied by six — from €534.
• Monthly rate: the daily rate multiplied by twenty-one — from €1,869.
• Deposit and excess: set out in the rental agreement, not a fixed figure on this page.

Longer bookings are the ones worth planning ahead: the car is brought to you, and the hand-over slot is agreed with a manager when you reserve, so a three-week hire needs a date rather than a walk-in.

Documents, licence and insurance for Hyundai car rental in Paris

French rental law sets the paperwork, and the same rules apply whether you take the Kona, the Kona Electric or the Tucson. What follows is what the licence, the insurance and the excess actually mean before you sit behind the wheel.

Driving licence rules for Hyundai hire in Paris

An EU or EEA licence is valid in France for as long as it stays valid, with no exchange needed. A tourist on a non-EU licence may drive on their national permit, but if the characters are not Latin you need an official translation or an International Driving Permit — the IDP is only a translation and must be shown together with the national licence. If you live outside the EU/EEA, driving is allowed for 1 year from the entry date on your visa, and moving to France permanently means exchanging the permit. Our rule is a licence issued more than 1 year ago, and digital licences are not accepted.

Insurance included with a Hyundai in Paris

Responsabilité civile is compulsory by law and comes with every booking automatically, covering injury and property damage to third parties within the country's legal limits — it does not cover the driver's own injuries. French market base packages also include CDW, which limits your liability to the excess and covers repairs and vehicle downtime, and TW, which covers theft, attempted theft and vandalism in a car park, also up to the excess. The excess itself is a fixed sum you pay on damage or theft, and it is not reducible by arguing. Base protection does not cover tyres under abnormal use, glass (unless from a collision), the sunroof and panoramic roof, the underside, wrong-fuel damage, lost or stolen keys, or damage from negligence. Visa Premier and Gold Mastercard often cover the CDW/TW excess if the booking was paid with that card and the holder is the main driver.

Reducing the excess on your booking

• Excess amount: set out in the rental agreement, not a published figure.
• Fuel policy: full-to-full — you collect with a full tank and return it full.
• Additional driver: agreed when booking, with the terms set out in the rental agreement.

Parking your Hyundai car rental in Paris

Driving here is a practical exercise in patience and planning. Traffic moves on the right, every car is left-hand drive, and the three Hyundais we rent — Kona, Kona Electric and Tucson — are all automatic, which removes one thing to think about in dense traffic. Speed limits are the ones to watch: 50 km/h in built-up areas under Code de la route, art. R413-3, rising to 70 km/h on some stretches; 130 km/h on motorways, dropping to 110 km/h in rain.

Speed limits and the périphérique

The boulevard périphérique runs at 50 km/h since 1 October 2024, a decision by the city hall, even though Code de la route permits up to 70 km/h there. The left lane between the Seine bank at Issy and porte de Bercy, in both directions, is reserved for cars carrying 2 or more people on weekdays 7:00–10:30 and 16:00–20:00, an experiment running since 3 March 2025; driving it alone is a 135 € contravention, enforced from 2 May 2025. On ordinary roads outside towns the limit is 80 km/h, or 90 km/h on two-lane sections where the department has decided so. In rain, motorways drop to 110 km/h.

Parking in Paris

• Zone 1 street parking: districts 1–11 use a progressive tariff, not an hourly one — 1 hour is 6 €, 2 hours 12 €, 3 hours 24 €, 4 hours 39 €, 5 hours 57 €, 6 hours 75 €.
• Six-hour maximum: a car may stay in one paid street space for no more than 6 consecutive hours.
• 15-minute billing: the visiteur tariff has applied since 1 August 2021 and is split into 15-minute blocks.
• Horodateur or app: pay at the machine or through a parking app; an unpaid space triggers a forfait post-stationnement of 75 € or 50 € for light vehicles here, which is a parking charge rather than a road-traffic fine.
• Toll tunnel: the Duplex A86, the underground link from Rueil-Malmaison through Vaucresson to Vélizy, about 10 km, is operated by Cofiroute/Vinci — Monday to Thursday the class 1 rate runs 8.30–13.70 € depending on the hour, and up to 14.90 € on Fridays and the eve of public holidays.

Do you need a car in Paris for Hyundai rental

Our drivers pick the Hyundai up and hand it back at the address agreed when booking — we deliver to you rather than run a counter, so the return time is fixed with the manager, not at a desk.

Booking a Hyundai car rental in Paris with a manager

A booking with us runs through a manager, not an instant checkout: you send the dates and the model, we confirm availability, the price and the hand-over, and only then is the car reserved. That single step removes most of the guesswork from the whole process, because a person checks the exact car, the exact dates and the delivery point before anything is fixed.

What the manager needs from you

• Rental dates and times: the day and hour you want the car and the day and hour you return it, since the rate is counted per day.
• Model preference: Hyundai Kona, Hyundai Kona Electric or Hyundai Tucson — we hold one car of each on this page, so early requests have the widest choice.
• Delivery point: where you want the car handed over, agreed with the manager when the booking is confirmed rather than assumed in advance.

How the booking is confirmed

Rent-Trip works on request rather than on a live calendar, so the sequence is short: you tell us the dates, the model and the delivery point, we check the car against those dates, and the manager comes back with a confirmed price and the terms of the rental agreement. Payment, the deposit and any delivery arrangement are set out in that agreement and agreed when booking — we do not publish them as fixed figures, because they depend on the car, the dates and the hand-over you choose.

What to know before you book Hyundai car rental in Paris

• Licence held for over a year: French rental rules require a licence issued more than 1 year ago, and digital licences are not accepted — bring the physical card.
• IDP for non-Latin scripts: an International Driving Permit older than 3 years is not valid, and it never replaces your national licence — it is presented alongside it.
• Child seats: required for children under 10 or shorter than 135 cm, and both conditions must be met before a seat becomes unnecessary.
• Winter equipment: mandatory from 1 November to 31 March in roughly 34 mountain departments — Île-de-France is not among them, but an Alpine trip is.
• ZFE perimeter: Crit'Air 5, 4, 3 and «Non classé» vehicles are banned inside the A86, and the boulevard périphérique sits within that perimeter.

The Hyundai you book through us is agreed with a manager, so anything the agreement covers — the deposit, the insurance excess, delivery and the additional driver — is confirmed at that stage rather than assumed from a listing. We hand over three models: Kona, Kona Electric and Tucson, all with 5 seats and automatic transmission, from €89 to €109 per day.

Speed limits are worth knowing before you leave the city: 50 km/h in built-up areas, 130 km/h on motorways, dropping to 110 km/h in rain. The boulevard périphérique has been limited to 50 km/h since 1 October 2024, and its left-hand covoiturage lane — Issy to porte de Bercy, both directions, Monday to Friday 7:00–10:30 and 16:00–20:00 — is reserved for cars with 2 or more passengers, with a €135 fine issued from 2 May 2025.

Parking in central arrondissements runs on a progressive visitor tariff: 6 € for one hour, 12 € for two, 24 € for three, up to 75 € for six, with a maximum of 6 consecutive hours in one space. The forfait post-stationnement for an unpaid stay is 75 € or 50 € for light vehicles. Paying through the horodateur app is quicker than hunting for a machine.
